@@@^@9However, this monthly visitor promises to answer questions on such passages of the Scriptures only as have been divinely revealed and authoritatively proclaimed—bearing the positive mark of truth. Therefore, it will either give a correct answer to questions or else confess its ignorance by saying “I do not know.” @7
Isaiah 3:1
@@@^Inasmuch as Present Truth believers are faithfully straining their ears in an anxious endeavor to catch all the news waves from this anti-typical hill of “green pastures,” to which the prophet Micah’s attention was called long ago (Micah 7:14), we fear they will be greatly disappointed if we say nothing of its activities; therefore, we are happy to send forth a few lines of greeting from Mother Nature at Mt. Carmel.
Isaiah 3:2
@@@^More and more impressive does the truth become that the Lord has prepared this place from it’s very beginning for the work which it is to accomplish. We believe this because of the fact that besides the great advantages deriving from its central location in the northern part of the western hemisphere, its geographical surroundings, and its happy endowment of nature’s choicest environment, away from all worldlings and the corrupting influences of city life, it brings to one’s soul peace and joy in the “blessed hope” which it seems no other plot of ground can do.
Isaiah 3:8
@@@^Although there has been an unusual drought with but one rain of any account up to April 14th since last fall, vegetation did not look so bad as it could have, but up to this date (May 13) we have had three good rains and everything looks promising. Hence, we request all our friends of Present Truth to plead with the One in Whose “hand are the deep places of the earth,” and say “O Lord, how manifold are Thy works! in wisdom hast Thou made them all: the earth is full of Thy riches. So is this great and wide sea, wherein are things creeping innumerable, both small and great beasts. There go the ships; there is that leviathan, whom Thou hast made to play therein. These wait all upon Thee; that Thou mayest give them their meat in due season. That Thou givest them they gather: Thou openest Thine hand, they are filled with good. Thou hidest Thy face, they are troubled: Thou takest away their breath, they die, and return to their dust. Thou sendest forth Thy Spirit, they are created: and Thou renewest the face of the earth.” (Psa. 104:24-30.)
Isaiah 4:1
@@@^“I do not know what is going to happen to some who profess to believe in Present Truth, who have been taught, admonished, reproved, and warned both by precept and by example, but who still continue on in the crooked, old road as though they absolutely never saw, heard, or knew better.
Isaiah 4:3
@@@^“I have mentioned here only a few of the old, Laodicean habits and practices, ideas and theories, which the enemy is trying to continue among the reformers, and with which he would bait Present Truth believers to snare them back into his ‘kidnaping bag.’
Isaiah 4:4
@@@^“I must also mention another matter which has long been on my mind. A variously striped correspondence virtually devoid of spiritual light has long been passing between an increasing group of more literary members among the believers of ‘The Shepherd’s Rod,’ and has done no one any particular good and all considerable harm. This class of people who are in reality, neither in harmony with ‘The Shepherd’s Rod,’ nor with the denomination but who, while pretending to be friends of the one, are standing off at a short distance throwing stones at both parties at the same time by bulky exchanges of letters, thus unconsciously playing into the Devil’s hands and enabling him by hook or crook to consume their time, unsettle the minds of Present Truth believers, and hinder and slow down the work while all the time they pretend to be helping.
Isaiah 4:6
@@@^We are making a most earnest appeal to all Present Truth believers to guard themselves from every evil influence and gain victory over the natural man who is urging them to sell out their birthright either for a “bowl of pottage” or a “Babylonish garment,” or for vanity or covetousness.
Isaiah 5:3
@@@^Very shortly, one of the elders went away in his car, and about ten minutes later, a police car drove up and Sr. Jourdain and her daughter, both of whom had recently been disfellowshipped from the Hawthorne church for embracing Present Truth, and who had the previous week been warned not to return to the church, were summarily ordered to “come along.” My husband stepped over to the officers and interrogated them concerning the arrest of these two sisters, but Elder Cales, who had run to speak to the officers just as soon as he spied my husband step over to them, had so prejudiced their minds with smooth sayings that it was useless to talk with them.
Isaiah 6:5
@@@^Therefore, by the grace of God, I am going to do all that is in my power to arouse my brethren and sisters that they may see the “Present Truth” for this time. Nothing but death can keep me from passing it to others. Pray for them and me, that God’s people may return to the “old landmarks” and “the firm platform” in fulfillment of the following: “The living testimony had been revived. The last great warning had sounded everywhere, and it had stirred up and enraged the inhabitants of the earth who would not receive the message.” (“Early Writings,” p. 279.)
Isaiah 6:13
@@@^@@Dear Brethren:@^I am a firm believer in “The Shepherd’s Rod,” and intend to go through with it to the end. I am so glad that the Lord has opened my eyes to the light, and if He will permit me, I will carry it to others that they, too, may embrace the truth for this time and rejoice in it as we do. Pray for me. @3(Signed) Mrs. NORA WALTERS.
Isaiah 7:2
@@@^@@Dear Brothers and Sisters:@^I am teaching the “The Shepherd’s Rod” message to all the church members here. I have a company here of ten that are studying. “The Shepherd’s Rod,” and we are praying that the entire church may accept it. We are expecting the ministers here any day to try to refute “The Shepherd’s Rod,” but we know the truth will stand.
Isaiah 7:3
@@@^I have been a believer in the “The Shepherd’s Rod” message now for nearly one year. My wife and I lost our position at Birmingham, Ala., for standing up for the “The Shepherd’s Rod” message, but we are thankful that the dear people with whom I studied at Birmingham are still faithful; some of them have definitely taken their stand for Present Truth. My only desire is to carry this message to our brethren in the church before it is too late . . .
Isaiah 8:12
@@@^As to the tithe, I say as you do: “We want our little to go where it will accomplish the most,” but first of all and always above our own judgment, we want to go wherever the Lord commands, for it is His and not ours. We are “not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel,” and “It is not meet to take the children’s bread, and cast it to dogs.” (Matt. 15:24, 26). God has not sent us to the heathen, but to the church, and has commanded: “Bring ye @9all@7 the tithes into the storehouse” wherein is Present Truth, and as our message is to “the lost sheep of the house of Israel,” it will be meat in @9His@7 house where the “children are fed “first.”
Isaiah 9:1
@@@^Suppose we should all feel that our tithes must go to the treasury in Washington, then how would the message reach the people in the church? God does not want to bring the heathen unconverted into the church for the slaughter of Ezekiel Nine, but He is exceedingly anxious to save the church: neither is He working “to bring @9many@7 souls into the truth, because of the church-members who have never been converted. . . . Would they not make of no effect the God-given message which His people are to bear?”—“Testimonies for the Church,” Vol. 6, p. 371.
Isaiah 9:4
@@@^As long as you keep wavering on Present Truth, your sighing and crying will be too feeble and insufficient to place the seal of God in your @9forehead@7—on display; that is, openly confessing that you are a disciple of Christ; and as long as they receive your tithe and offerings, they will never “cast” you out (Isa. 66:5). By the fact that you are still a member of the church and in office, it speaks for itself that you have not yet taken a firm stand on the Lord’s side, although He has said: “Set thy face @9against it@7, and it shall be besieged, and @9thou@7 shalt lay siege against it.” Mark that “this” and not your name on the church books or your gifts in their treasury, “shall be a sign to the house of Israel.” (Ezek. 4:3.)
Isaiah 11:6
@@@^“Greater efforts should be put forth to educate the people in the principles of health reform. Cooking schools should be established, and house-to-house instruction should be given in the art of cooking wholesome food. Old and young should learn how to cook more simply. Wherever the truth is presented, the people are to be taught how to prepare food in a simple, yet appetizing way. They are to be shown that a nourishing diet can be provided without the use of flesh foods.”—Id. p. 161.
Isaiah 12:1
@@@^May all God’s people understandingly and with repentance bow before Him Who, from this almost eternal ruin, is able to lift us up by bringing all of us to an understanding of this great vital truth of which this health carrying wave is to be instrumental.
